I've picked up all of Charles Petzold's old books on Windows programming, and I've enjoyed them a lot. It helps that most of the code in 'Programming Windows 3.1' will actually compile in VS2017 on Windows 10 with very few changes.

So on a similar note, I'm looking for equivalent books on classic MacOS programming I can look for online or buy used on Amazon, as well as the names of some development tools I should look for. I'm aware of tools like MPW, but my knowledge of the classic Mac development ecosystem is a but think. So I'm hoping to draw on the knowledge and experience of my fellow HNers for advice.

Thanks in advance!]]>

really different on my own time has helped rekindle my love of programming.
